No reverse gear is engaged. the "Kalina": causes and Troubleshooting

The car “choice” fits manual transmission. It transmits torque from the engine to the drive wheels. Motorists say the reliability of this transmission. But sometimes does not turn on reverse gear on «Kalina». The reasons may be different. In most cases they can be solved independently. In today's article we will discuss causes of malfunction reverse gear (“choice” will be subject to review) and methods of their elimination.

Oil

In the transmission, as well as in the engine, there is oil. According to its viscosity it is thicker than motor. On domestic cars the manufacturer recommends to change the coolant not less than once in 60 thousand kilometers. If not included rear transmission «Lada Kalina», check the oil level in the box. If the mileage is over 60 thousand, drain the old fluid and use new. It Happens that the oil level is lost due to the sagging of the gland or punched gaskets. Identify the leak and replace the sealing elements.

How to change the oil

For this you will need a viewing hole or overpass. Warm up the car before surgery. Transmission oil is very viscous, and at low temperatures it does not completely leave the wall box. Locate the transmission drain plug. Using a wrench, Unscrew it and replace the container for draining the waste liquid. Within 20 minutes the box will result in all the oil. Next, tighten the plug key and find the filler plug. It is sideways. Poured oil through a funnel or hose from the engine compartment (as on the checkpoint «Kalina» is situated transversely). After replacement, start the engine and warm up the box again. After five minutes, remove the dipstick and if necessary, add transmission oil. The volume of fluid should be 2200 ml. This applies to both the old "Calin" on the “nine” and new, powertrain 2181 and trastovyy drive. By the way, it is much less broken than the first. In half of the cases, this method can fix the problem.

Adjusting the scenes

Often after the repair to «Kalina» is not included reverse. The speed of squeezing the pedal it does not matter. With it will disappear and fifth gear. To troubleshoot, you need to adjust the position of the scenes. How to do it? Need to find a clamp the scenes and weaken it.

Next, the lever is translated to the desired position (rear or fifth speed). The clamp is tightened. Should review the effectiveness of adjustment on the engine running. If after that you still won't turn on in reverse on «Kalina», adjust for first gear. Move the gear lever to the appropriate position after releasing the bolt. Rotate the drive yoke counterclockwise until then, until the lever rests in detent reverse transfer R. Exposing the depth of the landing scenes at cardanic checkpoint, you resume the correct operation of the box.

Solenoids

This mechanism is as automatic and mechanical transmissions. The solenoid is powered via the ring-breaker (located on the transmission lever). When you pick it up, the element is activated. The stock solenoid being pulled in. Is the reverse gear.

Along with this is triggered, the limit on the transmission, and included the reverse lights. Why not turn on the rear transmission «Kalina». The reasons may be a blown fuse in the solenoid. It is labeled “f-21”. Check the fuse box and replace the burnt element.

What to do if it all?

If you are not into reverse (“choice”), the reasons may be in another part. To diagnose you need to disassemble the cover of the box. Under it there is a connector that is connected to the switch solenoids. We switch off and connect directly contacts. Check the engage in reverse. If not, remove the solenoid connector and measure the voltage in it. When the voltmeter shows less than 12V, then there is a short. You can check and, if using a test light. Its capacity is 3 to 5 Watts. If it is not lit, then the chain of blown leads. Looking for further. Closes the contacts of the plug that goes down under the floor of the car. This can be done by means of a metal clip. Next, turn back. If he joined without problems, then the short happened right here. In the case of serviceability of the element, remove the connector from the solenoid. With the help of two pins and tester measure the voltage. The ends of the tester are applied to the pins. In most cases, breakage occurs because of a broken harness and the oxidation of copper. Most often, the wire frays at the place of installation of the clamp on the pallet in a mechanical box. How to check it?

Remove the chip clip and disconnect the connector that goes to the reverse lights. Get the harness outreleasing him from isolation and look at the wires. If they have traces of melting or other deformation, replace them. Cut the damaged element with wire cutters and connect the other. It is desirable that they were of the same diameter and cross section. Connection method – twisting. But for more confidence it is possible to apply the soldering iron and heat shrink. Do not forget to insulated the cord and place it in the groove. It is important that it did not get wet. So you reduce the risk of oxidation. The clamp is changed to a new one. After the repair plug the connector and check for a faulty box. If the solenoid is faulty, you should measure the level of resistance. This figure is 2.2 Ohms. In the case of the output element of the system, also changing the transmission oil. Thread and sealing elements are lubricated with sealant. Otherwise, the box will begin to flow.

Mechanical part

If not enabled reverse gear on «Kalina» the reasons may be the shift mechanism. The latter has in its structure a spring. She often breaks. If the part is “falls” at the bottom of the box, it will not interfere with the gear change. The driver may cover several years, unaware that the mechanism of the busted spring. But if she's stuck in the grooves, there will be inevitable failure of the rear transmission. Depending on the part position, the speed may be periodically switched on or not work at all. In this case, you will have to completely disassemble the gearbox and remove the jammed item out.

Solution

Once you pulled the item, you have two ways out of the situation. First – to buy a new spring (it is inexpensive, about $ 100) and install it. Second – the replacement of a unit of gear selection entirely. It costs about a thousand rubles. Experienced motorists recommend that you change the detail part. The spring is made from poor quality material and very quickly fails. A reasonable solution – purchase of gear Assembly.

Release bearing

This element is extremely reliable. But we should not exclude it from being destroyed. How to determine what has failed that is the release bearing? For this you need to squeeze the clutch at the got the motor and listen to the work box. If releasing the brake pedal is enhanced by a distinctive sound (rustling), and is not included reverse gear on «Kalina», causes the bearing. But not only this speed will not turn on. Often due to ‘release" bad trigger subsequent transmission. They have to include with the blipping and double-clutching, like you should. Should detail inexpensive, but for replacement it is necessary to completely remove the box.

Conclusion

So, we found signs of breakage reverse gear «Lada Kalina», and the solution. In most cases the problem is eliminated with their hands. However, in the absence of experience or free time can go to the Studio.
